More specifically, try this:\r\n\r\n1. Use `pip-tools` (version 1.9 or later) to compile the following `requirements.in` on OSX:\r\n```\r\nipython\r\n```\r\n2. Note that `appnope` (only useful on OSX) is included in the resulting `requirements.txt`, without any environment markers - it should be only for `:sys_platform == \"darwin\"`.\r\n\r\nI'll put together two PRs (one for master, the other for 5.x) that limits the insanity to old versions of pip (\u003c6).","author":{"url":"https://github.com/tysonclugg","@type":"Person","name":"tysonclugg"},"datePublished":"2017-05-23T05:58:33.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":6},"url":"https://github.com/10583/ipython/issues/10583"}
